Hi All. .
I am looking into making a cloud back up of one of our NAS systems. .
I have the following questions;
1- Which is the best provider ? . . Amazon S3, Azure, Backblaze etc . . ?
2- Is it safe to do this?
3- Is it possible to make a full clone of one of our NAS'S to the cloud that can be used to restore an entire NAS system from ?
4-Would that clone be accessible from a Mac, for example to mount via SMC in order to access data ?
Advice would be greatly appreciated. . .
JJ

Re: HOW TO MAKE A FULL NAS BACK UP TO AWS?
1. Is an individual flavour, no objective answer possible.
2. If you encrypt your data before uploading to cloud using a common encryption cipher it seems safe.
3. No, QNAP does not provide a "bare-metal" backup/restore since years. Common apps backup user data, but not system data from NAS.
4. Not familiar with Mac, but my guess: depends to type of backup and encryption.
Regards

A raid is never a substitute for backup! Never!

Thanks FSC830.
So only data can be backed up.

Re: HOW TO MAKE A FULL NAS BACK UP TO AWS?
You can backup NAS settings to, but this does usually not contain all apps.
This will help you to setup NAS again after a failure and a new initialization (which is mandatoray first).
After restoring NAS settings the NAS name, IP, raid level, etc. is identical to the pre-error status, but data needs still to be restored in a separate task.
Also most likely not all apps and apps settings are restored, this depends to individual app.

Well, tbh, it’s the data that’s critical.
Thank you.
